As previously mentioned, one of the most endearing aspects of “That ’70s Show” is the way in which the series evokes nostalgia for its titular time period — something which appeals to both people born after the ’70s and people who experienced their teenage years during that particular era.
“That ’70s Show” focuses heavily on several prominent aspects of 1970s America. These include the rising anti-establishment mentality across America (embodied primarily by Steven Hyde), the surge of marijuana use in the country (seen whenever the audience visits the circle), and a rising sense of teenage independence.

On top of that, the series is chock full of references to the popular culture of the 1970s, with Eric’s bedroom acting as almost a shrine of vintage ’70s posters and sci-fi memorabilia — much of which is dedicated to “Star Wars.” As such, the series as a whole serves as a love letter to an age gone by, and the sense of nostalgia it embodies is one of the show’s best qualities.
